McDonald’s: Come as you are

Posted by Bert Callens on July 30, 2010 No comments yet

This ad has been made by McDonald’s France. It’s about a boy who’s in love, yet his dad can’t know. It has a bit of an emotional touch in it with the tagline “Come as you are”.
Why posting this ad? Spicy Detail: The commercial can’t be broadcasted in the US, due to cultural differences. It was mocked by Fox News host Bill O’Reilly, who angered gay campaigners by asking whether McDonald’s would make similar ads for terrorists.
Curious? Click on the movie to play.

Mini: Countryman

Mini created this billboard to promote their new Countryman in Milan, Italy. The rather humorous thing about this is that they created a fake billboard on the other side with surfboard in order to make the ad work. We have never heard of Malamalama. Thank you Selectism for the picture!

V Energy is a special energy drink with Guarana From New Zealand. With this spot they want to promote the possibilities when drinking this energy drink. It’s a variation on the famous sport called ‘Parkour’, in parkour people run and jump from one structure to another in a smooth and fluent way. V Energy added a dimension to this, the artists are using ladders to perform their stunts, as you can see the possibilities are endless. Probably everyone wants to be able to perform stunts like these.

Mars: Messages from mars

Posted by Sander Janssen on July 28, 2010 1 comment

“Messages from Mars”, is a Gold Design Lion winner at Cannes International Advertising Festival. The famous label was removed from the candy bar, only leaving it black. They provided consumers with the complete alphabet in the Mars font. The bar became an interactive object that people could use to pass a message. You can see some examples, but the text on these bars is in Dutch though.

Fedex: Loading bar

Sometimes you have to wait a wait for a website to load. In case of flash websites this is preceded by a loading bar. Fedex makes good use of this by promoting its own service.
